Van Aanholt criticises Zouma

Crystal Palace defender Patrick van Aanholt has admitted he would ‘have a go’ at Kurt Zouma for his sending off against Watford after the final whistle if he was his manager.

The Blues defender was given his marching orders for dissent at Vicarage Road after approaching referee Lee Probert after the match and will now miss the Toffees’ next match away at Cardiff City.

Van Aanholt offered his honest thoughts on the situation when appearing on Goals on Sunday.

It’s frustration. You can go to the referee and ask. He [Zouma] is right in his [referees] face, so I can understand why he is getting booked for that.

But for Everton, he will be a great miss because he is a unit. He is a big strong defender. If I was a manager, I don’t know what I would say to him, but I think I would have a go at him.

Bolasie Wants Patience

Yannick Bolasie appeared to ask for patience following Anderlecht’s 0-0 draw with Zulte Waregem last weekend.

Bolasie managed to record 90 minutes and picked up a booking.

Following the game, the 29-year-old - on loan from Everton - told Voetbal Krant via Sport Witness: “No matter how high you have played, every competition requires adjustment.”

Kenny on Davies

Jonjoe Kenny has backed team-mate Tom Davies after his spell with the captain’s armband.

Davies captained the Blues against Manchester City and Watford after regaining his place in Marco Silva’s starting XI.

“We’re all in it together as young lads and myself and Tom have been mates for a long time now,” Kenny said.

“He has had ups and downs, like all players do, and the way he has bounced back has showed the type of character he’s got – how he gets on the ball and the confidence he has.

“When he’s captain, I’ll always support him and it’s vice-versa, he will always be behind me, too.”

Kenny added: “He is a quality player. I think people sometimes forget how old Tom is – he is only 20 years of age.

“He brings a lot to the team going forward and he’s a young lad who is very confident.

“He’s a homegrown player and what a player we’ve got at Everton.

“You can see the quality the young lads have here at the Club and we’re all determined to show what we can do.”

Sigurdsson Vow

Gylfi Sigurdsson has made a big vow to Evertonians.

And he’s gave an insight into the dressing room too.

Give it a read.

Thuram Linked

Everton are interested in Guingamp striker Marcus Thuram according to Just Football.

The forward - who is the son of former Juventus and France legend Lilian - has netted seven goals in 19 Ligue 1 appearances this term.

Thuram, 21, is also reportedly being tracked by Watford and Newcastle.

He joined Guingamp for £500k back in 2017.

To Be Fair....

Cuco did manage to make the Eredivisie team of the week.

Well done, Cuco!

Cuco Claim

Cuco Martina reckons the English game is more physical than Holland - but believes he’s became a better player due to his experiences.

Martina was brought to the Premier League by Ronald Koeman at Southampton before following the manager to Everton last season.

He is now on loan at Feyenoord.

“If you come from the Netherlands, you are used to playing football,” he told Sport Witness.

“But you soon notice that many long balls are played and that you have to be physically strong.

“That was a moment of change for me. In the end I picked that up well. I have become stronger, but also wiser and smarter.”

On This Day

One of my favourite ever Everton moments on this day in 2012.

Denis Stracqualursi scored the second in a 2-0 win over Chelsea at Goodison Park - and promptly broke down in tears at the Gwladys Street end.

What a man the Strac was.

Bring him back!

Silva Under Threat

Matthew Upson reckons Marco Silva’s position is under threat at Everton.

Silva has watched his side lose 10 of their last 16 games with supporters increasingly unhappy at what they are witnessing from the stands.

The former England defender told the BBC: “I don’t think he is safe at the moment.

“I think he’s under threat, not to say that he’s going to get the sack tomorrow, but I’m sure with that run and the way that they are playing – we can talk about position in the league and points and what have you – from the supporters point of view they are sitting back and watching and not being particularly happy with what they are seeing.”

Richarlison Valuation

Richarlison is now valued at £80m by Everton according to the Daily Star.

The Brazilian has bagged 10 goals in 23 appearances for the Blues since joining from Watford in the summer. He’s also netted three times in four games for Brazil since making his debut in September.

Marco Silva has a strong relationship with the forward, but the Star reckon Chelsea, AC Milan, PSG and Atletico Madrid have all been alerted to his situation at Goodison Park with the manager under pressure.

File this rumour under: ‘never want to see again’ please.

Thanks.

Holgate Impressing

While Everton aren’t quite impressing in the Premier League, Mason Holgate is certainly showing his qualities at Championship outfit West Bromwich Albion.

Holgate has joined the Baggies on loan until the end of the season and has made four appearances since arriving at the beginning of January.

Darren Moore’s side are currently fourth in the table and five points away from the automatic promotion places.

Here’s the pick of the reaction to his loan spell so far.
